Abstract

A user equipment (UE) can attempt to register with an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) that includes Call Session Control Functions (CSCFs), such as a Proxy CSCF (P-CSCF), an Interrogating CSCF (I-CSCF), and a Serving CSCF (S-CSCF). In situations in which IMS registration procedures may otherwise fail for the UE, due to an unreachable I-CSCF and/or S-CSCF, a P-CSCF can pseudo-register the UE with the IMS by informing the UE that the UE is registered with the IMS. If the UE attempts to initiate a service via the IMS while being pseudo-registered with the IMS, the P-CSCF can instruct other IMS elements to accept the UE and provide the service to the UE even though the UE is not fully registered with the IMS.
